In an interview Remco said "I think I still need a lot of specific training to be able to follow or attack them. There is a lot of work to be done to close that gap." I just hope that this can be done by next year's Tour. For now, he can still win the Olympics, and hopefully a bunch more of classics. The Belgian drought continues sadly for now in the Tour.
They call us obnoxious Belgian fans of Remco. How dare they! We support whoever we want, and I for one, do not make fun of whoever the hater's of Remco support. To each their own. We are fanatics and that's what the word fan comes from. It's all fun and makes sports what it is...exciting. Those who hate can now let go a sigh of great relief, since Remco did not win the Tour. Hate sometimes comes from fear and fear from cowardice. Rejoice for now but be scared, be very scared, cause Remco is not done winning. Go Remco Go!!!
